Oxerra offers high quality Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) under the brand name CathayCarb.
It is widely used in the coatings manufacturing industry for several key reasons:
Opacity and Coverage: GCC enhances the opacity and coverage of paint formulations, reducing the amount of pigment required and improving overall paint performance.
Cost-Effectiveness: It acts as a cost-effective filler material, helping to reduce the need for more expensive raw materials like titanium dioxide.
Consistency and Flow: GCC helps in altering the consistency of paints and coatings, promoting desirable flow characteristics without significantly increasing viscosity
Brightness and Whiteness: Its high brightness and whiteness improve the visual appeal of the final product.
Abrasion Resistance: GCC improves the abrasion resistance and durability of coatings, enhancing their performance and longevity.
Eco-Friendly: As a naturally occurring mineral, GCC supports sustainable manufacturing practices.
These properties make GCC an invaluable component in the production of high-quality, cost-effective, and sustainable coatings.
